The cult classic that describes with devastating, darkly comic clarity the experience of living with and dying from AIDS.

An inventive, exquisite memoir-in-essays by a blazing new talent.

A city struggling with the cost of its appetites. A rubbish mountain eighteen stories high. And the people who call it home.

Features none other than HM the Queen who drifts accidentally into reading when her corgis stray into a mobile library parked at Buckingham Palace. Her reading naturally changes her world view and her relationship with people like the oleaginous prime minister and his repellent advisers. The consequence is surprising, mildly shocking and funny.
